I like bynum and thought with odom gone and phil gone I thought he would really flourish b/c he have more of an opportunity to be in the game more...however he was just too inconsitent. He didn't have a good motor and there was too much weird bynum at times..Sometimes you get 30 rebs and sometimes you get 3 rebs.

I hope maybe in philly since he will be the man that he can do better but in this situation you have to get howard over bynum.

Bynum's antics last season had me in pins in needles all the time. He was my hope for the future but it seems he wanted to be the man immediately which I felt was disrespectful to the other vets. The Lakers tried to accommodate and appease him but he was not ready and our team suffered because of it. I hope this trade matures him and he'll have a great career with Philly.

^ I doubt it. If you've been in the league for like seven seasons and you're still immature the prognosis is usually not good. He's gonna realize how good he had it on the Lakers when he gets to Philly. Finally, he gets to be the man and personally, I don't think he'll be able to step up and deliver. And Philly fans are not known to be the most patient and gracious fans to even their own teams so there's less room for error for Bynum and his antics.
